Tuesday 4:00pm. Thanks for all your concern everyone. I guess you are all wondering what is going on here. Well I wrote what I thought was a sensitive letter to her explaining how much I love her and want to be with her but that we needed to work together to resolve the imbalance we have. I asked her to read some of the book this afternoon then call me at work and I will come home and we can talk about how we go forward. If she did not have the time or inclination then I will stay at my parents until she has read some of it and is ready to talk. I threw some clothes etc. in a bag, put the letter in the kitchen where she is sure to see it and went to work. When I got to work I realised that my plan had one whopping great hole in it. I have promised to take my son to see a movie at 6pm tonight so I could not stay away and would have to go cap-in-hand, tail-between-my-legs back to a humiliating situation. I quickly raced back home, tore the letter up and in it's place, I cut out a paper heart and wrote on it something like "We can be happy if we work together" put it under a coffee cup and came back to work mighty relieved. CeMar, I have ordered the 5 Love Languages so that's yet more psychobabble to freak her out with SD
